I know Andromeda has a poor reputation, and a lot of it stems from issues at release. I am just curious what people who have played it more recently think about it. I’m a Mass Effect fan, and it looks like I can pick Andromeda up for less than 5 dollars at most places. Is it worth 5 bucks?

Edit: Thank you guys so much for all the perspectives! I’m going to pick it up and give it a try.

    Personally, the word I’d use for it is ‘boring’.

    Loved ME and did a playthrough with the Legendary re-release, but when I hit Andromeda, I got to the planet and went ‘You know, I don’t care about ANY of these people, what we’re doing, and I’m not going to drive around for 30 more hours of this’ and just kinda… stopped playing.

      Kind of the same for me. I really liked the prologue and the combat felt good, but I just felt bored by the world and characters. It felt like a bland open world game with the points of interest and collectables. And on top of that, the choice system didn’t resonate with me.
